Manual Installation Using SmartStart
Performing a manual installation with SmartStart minimizes SmartStart’s
involvement. The manual installation routine runs the Compaq System
Configuration Utility. When you are prompted for the Microsoft Windows
NT Server 4.0, Enterprise Edition CD, SmartStart transfers the installation
procedure to Windows NT. Follow the instructions on the Windows
NT Server 4.0, Enterprise Edition installation screens.
To manually install the cluster software using SmartStart, you need the
following:
■ Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD 4.90 or later
■ Compaq Management CD 4.90 or later
■ SmartStart installation poster
■ Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0, Enterprise Edition
■ Compaq Server Support for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 (SSD) diskettes
NOTE: Compaq Server Support for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 (SSD) diskettes are made
by using the Diskette Builder utility located on the SmartStart and Support Software CD.
Configuring Server Node 1
1. Apply power to the shared storage area and boot server node 1 with the
SmartStart and Support Software CD in the CD-ROM drive.
2. When the system boots, you will see the Select Language screen. Select
which language you would like to use and follow the installation
process.
3. When prompted to select an installation path, select the Manual
Configuration path. Follow the guided installation process. If you need
help, refer to the online help by clicking on the Help button.
4. After the operating system has been selected, SmartStart runs the
System Configuration Utility and configures the server node’s hardware.
The adapter card in each server node that is connected to the shared
storage RAID controller must have a unique SCSI ID number.
5. To verify or change the SCSI ID number after the system configuration
is done, select Review or Modify Hardware Settings, then press Enter.
This allows you to see all of the hardware settings.
6. Select Step 3: View or Edit Details.
